to use your toaster

for light toasting and for thin or dry
bread.

etc.

hints on using your
toaster
●Select a lower setting for light
browning, for toasting one slice only
or for dry bread.
●When toasting a single slice of
bread, you may notice a variation in
toast colour from one side to the
other - this is normal.
●Dry/stale bread toasts more quickly
than fresh bread and thinly sliced
bread toasts more quickly than
thickly sliced bread. Therefore the
browning control should be set at a
lower setting than usual.
●For best results ensure that the
bread slices are of an even
thickness, freshness and size.
●In order to achieve uniform
browning we recommend you wait
a minimum of 30 seconds between
each toasting so that the control
can automatically reset. Alternatively
select a lower setting when
additional toasting is carried out.
care and cleaning
1Before cleaning, unplug your
toaster and let it cool down.
2Slide out the crumb tray . Clean,
then replace. Do this regularly:
crumbs can smoke or even burn.
3Wipe the outside of the toaster with
a damp cloth, then dry. Do not use
abrasives.
